A view of Grass Point jetty, on Mull, with soft grass in the foreground, the old stone jetty stretching out into the water, and the mountains in dappled sunlight in the distance.

Spring is a fabulous time of year! Try to set aside your anxieties for a while and drink in some nature. The green is coming (in more ways than one!)

You're too nice to be in politics. I wouldn't wish it on you.
Fungus is fabulous stuff! These are a selection from autumn, from the amazing Askham Bog, a Yorkshire Wildlife Trust location.

Spring is coming!!
's toil leamsa an t-earrach.
Quite! It's what you say and do that matters, not what you wear.
Me, wearing a t-shirt with "I love the isle of Skye" in Gaelic ("tha gaol agam air an t-eilean Sgitheanach") on it.

For all those #tiktokrefugee s who're wondering what to do while it's 'dark', how about learning Scottish Gaelic, an ancient language that will never let you down. See my gaelicgarb.com/learngaelic/ page for more ideas, and while you're there, there's some great T's!
A man stands on a beach, running his finger through his hair and smiles with the joy of life, while wearing a "Na gabh dragh" T-shirt in wine red. "Na gabh dragh" means "don't worry", a sentiment we could all do more with...
Are you in need of something new, interesting, different? Bored of plain old English T-shirts? Experience the glory that is Gaelic, with Gaelic Garb!

A large stone, smooth and mottled brown, sculpted into an owl, with a much smaller stone sculpted into a hedgehog just in front of the owl. Both nestled in an inch or so of snow with a small 'cap' of snow on top of the owl's head. A buddliea bush and a slatted fence provides a peaceful background
Two little garden chums enjoying the snow!
Leeds nightscape, with a canal snaking into the background, lights reflecting off the gentle ripples. The towering form of the Bridgewater building on the background skyline.
Leeds at night can be quite magical too.
Manchester has some fantastic, 19thC brickwork. Elegantly softened by budlea...

Lichen is fabulous stuff. A powerful symbiotic relationship of fungus and algae/bacteria, with an immense toolkit of utility chemicals it can deploy to protect itself and customise its environment. Since they can reproduce by 'cloning', sending off parts of themselves, they are effectively immortal.
Today would have been Moses Cotsworth's 165th birthday. He was an amazing man, driven, tireless and a Yorkshireman.

A sand yellow t-shirt with Na gabh dragh! on it, and a stick person, chilling out, feet up on the exclamation mark.
"Na gabh dragh" in Gaelic means "don't worry". Literally though, it means "don't take bother", because in Gaelic emotions, fears are things you wear, like a coat. They're not what you are. They don't define you. You can take them off.
Advent of code 2024, it's only dec 2nd, and I'm already a day behind 😢. A lot of catching up to do later... #aoc2024 #adventofcode
A close-up of an orange and brown mottled Large Skipper butterfly, settled on and feeding from a thistle flower.
There is a great joy to be had, by looking closely at the small things, and taking the time to really see them.

Sunshine filtering through mossy trees at Askham Bog, York.
The Japanese have the concept of forest-bathing, shinrinyoku. Washing yourself clean, with a dip into nature. Askham Bog is just the place!
